In 2019 Tesla was under pressure after numerous failures to meet the car production figures and analysts’ balance sheet funding concerns drive the stock price down to $176. I expect TSLA stock to be volatile as it builds its manufacturing capabilities and expands in other products. What I am buying here is the Tesla and Ellon Musk story and not the company fundamentals. TSLA is the leader In the electric vehicles market and all aggressive portfolios will probably buy TSLA just to follow the futures trend.

On the technical side, TSLA stock is trading above the 20 and 50 day moving averages and has broken the weekly downward trending channel with higher than average daily volumes. Immediate resistance for TSLA stands at $251 the 100-day moving average, and more offers will probably emerge at the 150 day moving average at 277.
